Bomb Threat Riddim – Scare Dem Music

Bomb Threat Riddim – Scare Dem Music is a 1997 dancehall set that pulls together African’s Get Mean, Bounty Killer and Scare Dem Crew’s Scare Dem Way, Major Christie’s Lady, Mr. Vegas’ So Long, and VIP and Mikey Plus’ Aint No Stopping, with Chris Meredith handling the version cut. Scare Dem Music’s name is tied closely to the release, and the riddim also turns up in catalog listings for African, Major Christie, Mr. Vegas, and Scare Dem Crew that place all of those cuts on the same 1997 rhythm. Bounty Killer’s link-up with Scare Dem Crew gives the project extra bite, while Mr. Vegas and Major Christie add a more melodic contrast to the harder vocal turns. It’s a compact six-track juggling riddim with a raw, driven feel and a classic late-90s dancehall edge.
